Not sure how interesting they would be by themselves, but for now one might be content just with new variant(s) in which both sides use the same new armies (but a new army which is different from e.g. the standard 10x8 Capablanca Chess army) in e.g. new 10x8 variant(s).

At any rate, I'm not quite sure if e.g. a variant of Marsailles Chess based on Chess With Different Armies wouldn't work okay if just using the standard 4 armies as in Chess With Different Armies.
